I was actually very surprised the DC snipers choose the AR-15 as it has low accuracy in the configuration they choose. It also ejects evidence (the spent shell casing) about 20 feet from the shooter. Only later, when I learned they hid in the trunk did that part make sense. They only fired one round - so the entire benefit of a "high capacity" magazine was lost.

Not enough inaccuracy apparently.

Regardless your position on guns - the medias bias and lack of correct wording is always obvious to knowledgeable gun owners. They help to spread incredibly inaccurate information regarding semi-automatic weapons. It sure makes your average gun owner very suspicious their agendas when they make such errors.

I don't resent people the right to own guns. I just want them to be reponsible with them and adhere to laws. I do resent organizations like the NRA objecting to any and all regulation regardless of merit.
